In solids, heat is the energy of vibrating molecules or atoms; the higher the temperature, the greater the vibration. And when molecules or atoms vibrate more, there will be more space between them.
Their average kinetic energy, and hence their speed, increases.
The measurement of the energy or heat in matter involves measurement of average speed of atoms and molecules.
First you need to find the root mean square speed of Cl2 at 24 degrees C using the formula sqrt(3RT/Mm) where R is the gas constant, T is the temperature in K, and Mm is molar mass. Approximately 34.24 m/s. Now perform a simple algebra problem to solve for the temperature Xenon atoms will reach this speed.
The kinetic energy of a gas is the speed of motion of the gas molecules. The higher the speed of the molecules, the higher the kinetic energy and the higher the temperature.
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of an object. This is proportional to how quickly the particles move.
Solids.
Temperature.
A thermometer. Temperture is the measure of the kinetic energy, Aka speed, of molecules.
energy
Whatever it is, gas, vapor, liquid, solid - the higher the temperature, the higher is the local agitation/speed of the molecules/atoms.

When we heat a substance, the energy absorbed is converted into kinetic energy of the particles in it. The faster the particles in it vibrate, move, collide, etc. the higher the temperatureof a substance.So the expected answer is Temperature
The speed of gas molecules is primarily determined by their temperature, not their specific identity. At the same temperature, bromine molecules and air molecules would have similar average speeds.
If you increase the temperature of a gas, its particles (atoms or molecules) will speed up. If it is in a closed container, the pressure will also increase.
A particle may travel at a faster speed or its component atoms or molecules may vibrate more vigorously.
